Santander Group and Meniga Set to Deploy a Global Personal Finance Management Initiative

The Santander Group has selected Meniga, the largest white-label PFM (Personal Finance Management) software provider in Europe, to deploy a global banking PFM initiative across all Santander Group markets. The Meniga platform will be used to develop customized data solutions for Santander to offer its customers. Santander is already the largest bank in the euro zone by market value and the data enriched platform is designed to be flexible which will further support the demands of a global digital economy. By empowering customers with advanced digital banking tools, users can make informed financial decisions.

“This agreement is an important milestone in our journey towards truly personalized digital banking. We have been very impressed with Meniga’s technology and vision and I see this agreement as the first step in a long-term strategic partnership between the two companies” said Jose María Fuster, head of Global Innovation at Grupo Santander, in a press release.

“Meniga’s mission is to help banks innovate and transform their online and mobile offerings into a highly personal virtual finance advisor that helps people manage all aspects of their money and become smarter consumers,” said Georg Ludviksson, co-founder and CEO of Meniga. “We are delighted to play our part in supporting Santander’s digital journey across a number of businesses and geographies. Santander is renowned for its innovation and leadership in bringing new services to market.”

The Meniga PFM platform integrates personalized digital banking functionalities, to give customers a comprehensive perspective of their finances. Transaction categorization and search capabilities simulate an Internet search-like user experience. With features like autocomplete and matching, customers can quickly access their consolidated financial data. As the world continues to adopt social media mannerisms to stay in tune with live updates, the Meniga PFM platform mimics a similar communication feed that enables customers to view their financial timeline. Like a story unfolding on social media, a customer’s financial activity is displayed with a blend of custom advice, messages and insights, all in real-time. Targeted messaging is another feature that provides relevant notifications and product offers to a customer base. Additional Meniga PFM solutions include net worth presentation, peer comparison, and spending & savings goals.

Coupled with a functional and personalized user experience, this personal finance management tool is sure to be a frequently used front screen favorite for current and future Santander customers.
